RE: @curie has supported you - You might want to consider a witness vote!
Hi Asher. I read the comments and wanted to say hi before I head off to work. Wishing you a beautiful day. 🙂
I believe witness education is important. A lot of us don’t understand the roles of witnesses especially newbies. I congratulate them when they’ve been curied and most don’t understand why they should be happy. They don’t know why there are 300+ upvotes on their post when the post itself has only 30 views.
I do think many have to learn about curie before they will think of voting them as witness, and they would also have to learn about witnesses.
My vote for curie as a witness was cast when they showed support for the newbies out there. I’ve never received a curie upvote myself but that doesn’t stop me from seeing the community support.
That being said, I thought curie like to spread their upvotes around. I’ve seen many of the same authors receive their support. My impression was 2-3 times for a curie support but you have that they can show their support up to 10 times? I never knew that and would hope they support more new authors that don’t have the polish post look or professional photographs.
Hi there :)
Yes I made sure to link their post today which includes some good information on why to support them.
This link is good for an intro to Witnesses: https://steemit.com/witness-category/@someguy123/seriously-what-is-a-witness-why-should-i-care-how-do-i-become-one-answer
Perhaps both the post earlier today and this one could have included more background information on why people should vote for witnesses at all - The information is out there, just hard to locate - a bit like the quality content that curie spend so much time finding and supporting.
Have yourself a wonderful day!
I read the same post a while back. 🙂 You should know anything written after 24 hrs is dated in Steemit time! Have a great day!
it's not that those multiple curie upvotes are all "full"-curies ;) You maybe get 2-3 big ones, but I often see a smaller curie upvote pop up somewhere.
Thanks for the comment @r00sj3. We run into each other again. :) I didn't make a comment to you since I saw many already had.
I did notice many receiving those multiple curie upvotes are community support. Their curie upvote worth is small in the 0.30% - 7% range so so. The community support could be from a trail or to show support to budding talents. I have seem some authors receiving 2-3 big curie support.
By all means, I am not a curie sherlock holmes! :) I'm just trying to understand to whom they show their support because I have seen their support both to new and veteran users. I have seen a one time support to one author and multiple times to the same author. I have seen their support to polished posts with quality photographs to supporting a few thrown in here and there that are not as polished.
Full disclosure, I did throw my hat to being a prospective curator with Curie. I did so because I've seen so many authors highlighted on our @newbieresteemday account receiving curie upvotes, and I figured, hey, might as well see if I can become a curator with them so I can share the finders fee with the @newbieresteemday account and help grow it (our goal there is to help support newbies with a reputation level below 45). My chances of being one is slim, but a gals gotta try! ;)
If you don't try, it won't happen anyway. I love what you try to do, so I'm sure it will work out :) Good luck!!
I think the biggest challenge remains to be found by curators. If no curator follows you and you don't interact much, it will be hard to get noticed since you will absolutely disappear in the pile of nonsense that is being steemed. I suspect they prefer new authors but remain supporting the struggling more veteran authors a bit along the way. All I noticed was that every time I was about to throw my hat in, a small curie showed up. And I am happy they do that. Someone is looking after us ;)
I agree @r00sj3. Support in all ways are appreciated. That's why my witness vote goes out to many witnesses that support communities because who else will keep steemians on here? Our #newbieresteemday community support newbies with what little $0.05 to $0.20 cents we can on the @newbieresteemday account, and I never hesitate to reach out to a curator from Curie when I see a potential post. I might not receive the finders fee but that doesn't stop me or my Newbie Resteem team from helping others. We've seen 12+ newbie authors we highlighted as they started off as newbies received 1-3 curie upvotes in their journey here. Many appreciate seeing their work recognized. As to why they do/do not support Curie as a witness, that is a personal decision.
I see the support Curie give to the community and am happy they do what they do too! Thanks for the best wishes. :)
